Sector-based Producer Price Indexes: announcement

Released: 2026-09-04

Today, Statistics Canada announces the creation of the Sector-based Producer Price Indexes. These indexes have been built to measure price changes across four producer sectors—energy, non-energy, goods and services—using a methodology developed by the Bank of Canada. The indexes will be published for the first time on October 9, 2026. These data support research on firms’ price-setting behaviours and inflation dynamics, including the development of economic models.
